Congrats Noel!!!!! That's a great buy man and i guess i'm speaking for a lot of fellow members... we are jealous! Hahaha, but man i'm happy for you. Enjoy that beauty... and if you ever wanna get rid of it. I'll double the price you paid

i couldn't have said it better I wasn't that thrilled about V1, this V2 is butt ugly and and big step back from V1. Now let's hope they will come with a decent V3 without working PR and no recessed DW... if it ain't too much to ask Otherwise i'm keeping my hard earned money in the pocket, cause i'm not spending it on something that looks like a $10 Canal street rep.

There is also a Girard Peregaux Richeville that looks like this one and tons of vintage watches on Ebay have a similar case shape.... i really couldn;t tell... sorry and good luck trying to find the answer.

But that would only be some minor cosmetical changes... the issues with the 5002 are the low DW and the faux PR. If they would fix those and do a cosmetic change to a 5004 ... than i guess i'd be a happy chappy

Hi JBB, Welcome here... this is a nice save haven where you can read and learn a lot. Take your time before rushing into your first buy. One hint... maybe you wanna delete your email that is right out in the open now...

First of all... thanx for making a comparisson!! But... do you really count 54 teeth on the gen? There's a discussion going on about crowns produced by T and some members with a fairly recent PAM000 or PAM112 count only 48 teeth

I thought it should have a solid caseback...

First of all, sorry to hear this T. This must suck, putting in so much effort and cash and that finding out that some of the data was maybe wrong... The old ones, sold by the Turkish guy on Ebay and i got one or two from Kruzer, might be 60 teeth. Maybe they changed to less teeth later...? If someone could verify this... Depending on the outcome, you could always sell the 60 teeth crowns for cost price and the 48 teeth crowns with enough profit to make this interesting for you.

Grrrr... ditto to all three points But in stead of a groupbuy, couldn't we organise a group robbery?

When i read things like this i know again why i'm holding back buying reps of $500+ ... on a gen you have warranty, on the rep... well... that's always a surprise. And after paying the $500+ bill you will have to invest more to get it real good fixing the flaws like AR, lume, day/datewheel alignment etc... Sorry to hear about the problems of your and your friend's ROO's, SAS...

And all the movements still run strong?

Thanx for this great review Lani The review is excellently supported by the photos and i always love reading the history write up Although i think they produced a great case and crystal, i must say i'm far from thrilled with the quality of the dial, the too far recessed datewheel and the faux power reserve.

That's the one! What a beauty...

I've been eyeballing this new AP ROO for some time now and i'm really curious for the long time quality check. How does it hold out when it's worn a lot... i the movement still running fine, the chrono without probs, pushers, tube/crown, screws of bracelet etc... I'd love to hear you stories guys! Not only the bad ones, but also the good one I must also say that i'm amazed with the low number of posts concerning upgrades for the AP ROO. So who is doing superlume, who has sent the crystal off to Chieftang, thightening the screws? Thanx for your stories in advance

Mmmm... i'll arrive on 9/18 so i guess i'm a little late for the sale... you will have bought all the nice ones when i arrive

Oi Stephane... i'll phone you before i head for the big apple..... or New Amsterdam which it was before we dumb asses traded it for Suriname with the Brits. I'd love to know the grand tour for watch drooling window shopping

Nice result... very nice result!!

It all sounds great! Good to hear you guys had fun Counting the days... in 3 weeks i'll be in New York as well

Nope... defenately sleeprs... all of them! What's happening here with the members?

Let's just wait for Tourby's new center second Pilot watch... that's one i'd love to see

Looking forward to a small report and some pixx

Aaaahhh Stephane... i wished i was there right now mate!! But trust me i my mind i'm there. It's always so great to meet online friends in real life. And we know... with our little group of European friends Now we can start planning a wolrd GTG

Mmmm... seems people don't pick this subtle signal up

I think this is could be true... or not. But it somehow doesn't make sense. Why is the gap between the datewheel and the dial so large? It somehow looks like they put somehting in between the dial and the movement... I can't make sense of it... it is strange...
